Lens won just 9 games out of 38 last season and had the 5th worst defensive record in France Ligue 2.
Metz were promoted from the France National league where they conceded less than 1 goal per game on average.
Metz have made a very bright start to life in France Ligue 2 and there’s no reason they can’t continue it against a side who are currently struggling and barely managed to stay in France Ligue 2 last season.
